CHARLES PHAN

A San Francisco staple for more than 20 years, Chef Charles Phan’s The Slanted Door is famous for its “vibrant, home-style Vietnamese food in a modern setting.” A James Beard Award Winner for Outstanding Restaurant in 2014, The Slanted Door has served as the inspiration for Chef Phan’s acclaimed cookbooks: “Vietnamese Home Cooking” and “The Slanted Door,” both of which received International Association of Culinary Professionals awards for First Cookbook and Photography, respectively. In 2017, Chef Phan announced his intention to bring The Slanted Door to Las Vegas, with its first location outside of California set to open in The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace in 2018.
